The Abbey, Annandale, Gothic mansion in Annandale, Australia.
The Abbey spans 50 rooms across multiple levels, featuring a tower with gargoyles and decorated walls with hand-painted panels and timber architraves.
John Young, the principal builder of St Mary's Cathedral, constructed this residence in 1882 to persuade his wife to return from England.
The mansion incorporates Masonic symbols throughout its architecture, reflecting the builder John Young's involvement in Freemasonry during the Victorian era.
The property underwent a four-year restoration process until 2015, receiving recognition through a National Trust Heritage Award for preservation excellence.
During the 1960s and 1970s, medical doctor Geoffrey Davis organized numerous social gatherings in this 50-room residence.
